Whilst there are always many
different issues ongoing for our sector, the steering group for
these SFTT meetings agreed unanimously that the 2018 spread of
Phytophthora ramorum and the focus on new woodland creation are the
two most critical issues for South Scotland at present.

The meeting provided the
latest information on P. ramorum and expert views on the role of
different types of woodland to meet Scottish Government's
increasing planting targets, and the challenges involved in
delivering those.
